I'm surprised that no one has pointed out the natural link between the Quantum Kitty Cat thread and the "Is my cat dangerous after radioactive iodine treatment?" thread. Clearly by placing a radioactive kitty in a Schrodinger-style box in which some nefarious device is trigged by radioactive decay, one could create a measuring apparatus which is its own subject ... the details are left to the reader.
